Jeremiah 10:6-10

New Living Translation

⁶Lord, there is no one like you!
    For you are great, and your name is full of power.
⁷Who would not fear you, O King of nations?
    That title belongs to you alone!
Among all the wise people of the earth
    and in all the kingdoms of the world,
    there is no one like you.

⁸People who worship idols are stupid and foolish.
    The things they worship are made of wood!
⁹They bring beaten sheets of silver from Tarshish
    and gold from Uphaz,
and they give these materials to skillful craftsmen
    who make their idols.
Then they dress these gods in royal blue and purple robes
    made by expert tailors.
¹⁰But the Lord is the only true God.
    He is the living God and the everlasting King!
The whole earth trembles at his anger.
    The nations cannot stand up to his wrath.

New American Standard Bible

⁶^(A)There is none like You, Lord;
You are ^(B)great, and Your name is great in might.
⁷^(C)Who would not fear You, O ^(D)King of the nations?
For it is Your due!
For among all the ^(E)wise men of the nations
And in all their kingdoms,
There is none like You.
⁸But they are altogether ^(F)stupid and foolish;
The instruction from idols is nothing but wood!
⁹Beaten ^(G)silver is brought from ^(H)Tarshish,
And ^(I)gold from Uphaz,
The work of a craftsman and of the hands of a goldsmith;
Their clothing is of violet and purple;
They are all the ^(J)work of skilled people.
¹⁰But the Lord is the ^(K)true God;
He is the ^(L)living God and the ^(M)everlasting King.
The ^(N)earth quakes at His wrath,
And the nations cannot ^(O)endure His indignation.
